Justin, it's not like that at all with me. In fact, though I
haven't yet finished listening to the podcast in it's entirety, (see
my prior note) I actually went ahead and did the tasks along with the
cast and had such an incredibly easy time with the first couple that I
truly wonder what people's troubles were. I haven't heard the next
few, but will finish listening to it this weekend.
I know Pratik mentioned here that there was some issue with a
sticking key, so I can't imagine that would make things very easy,
especially during a demo.
anyway, have a great evening, and no troubles here!…
Smiles,
Cara :)

Hello
I have listened to the discussion. It was sort of painful to listen
to on the mac side of things. In the past I have been critical of
the apple OS mainly when leopard came out, but mistakes made here
could easily have been fixed more effectively than they were. I
guess all I can say here is that it hurts to think that other blind
users struggle this much with their computers.
Please tell me it's not like this with everyone here.
Regards

Please find a link below to the blog text and audio for this
presentation.
The file is 1 hour and 52 minutes long, and about 52MB in size:

I can add additional text or links to the blog entry if you like,
e.g.
to the products used, to the presenters, other related entities, or
related resources.
The recording was made using an Olympus DS50 recorder, and has been
saved
as a mono MP3 file. I have reviewed the beginning and select parts
of the
recording but have not reviewed the entire contents.
In the presentation, an Apple Macintosh Voiceover, Orca Linux, and
Jaws
For Windows user complete identical tasks using their assistive and
mainstream technologies. The presentation highlights the strengths
and
weaknesses of each operating system, related assistive
technologies, and
individual user experiences.
Enjoy,
Mika
